Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a copper alloy improved in platability with metals.
  • Copper alloys used in electronic machinery and tools are given various kinds of metal plating, seeking to impart more functionality thereto.
  • lead frames for example, they are given Ag plating for wire bonding, Cu plating as a foundation for the said Ag plating, and solder plating for mounting on boards.
  • plated lead frames prepared by giving metal plating throughout the surface of lead frames after forming lead by etching or presswork.
  • the metal plating given therein includes Pd plating, and Ni plating as a foundation thereof.
  • the Cu plating as a foundation is exposed in areas to which Ag plating is not given, and when it is heated in a packaging process, an oxidation film on the lead frame surface is formed.
  • anomalous precipitation, for example, porous precipitation, of the Cu plating causes formation of oxide film inferior in adhesiveness on the lead frame surface, to result in lowering of adhesion between a mold resin and lead frames.
  • the problem occurs that, when soldering onto boards is carried out, packages become cracked in a reflowing furnace.
  • a copper alloy having an excellent platability with metals and causing neither anomalous precipitation of plating metals nor lowering of adhesiveness of oxidation film can be provided for use in electronic machinery and tools.
  • Copper alloys are generally produced by using appropriate combinations of steps, such as casting, hot rolling, cold rolling, buff polishing and annealing, and undergo various types of plastic working in the process of production. As a result of the plastic working, a work affected layer and a plastic deformation layer, showing finer crystalline structure than those in the bulk copper alloy (or inner part of the copper alloy), are formed in the copper alloy surface layer.
  • “work affected layer” refers to a non-uniform microcrystalline structure (for example, amorphous, or the grain size of less than 0.2 ⁇ m) which is formed in the surface layer of a copper alloy underlying various types of plastic deformation processing as stated above, and is constituted of a Beilby layer (upper layer) and a microcrystalline layer (lower layer).
  • the Beilby layer has an amorphous structure, while the microcrystalline layer has a very fine crystalline aggregate texture.
  • the plastic deformation layer has a crystalline aggregate texture that the crystal grains therein is coarser than those in the microcrystalline layer and their sizes (for example, from about 0.2 to 3.0 ⁇ m) approach gradually sizes of crystal grains in the bulk copper alloy (or inner part of the copper alloy) (for example, from about 3.0 to 10.0 ⁇ m).
  • the present copper alloy for electronic machinery and tools is a copper alloy having in its surface layer a nonuniform and fine work affected layer controlled so as to have a thickness of 0.2 ⁇ m or below by removing treatment.
  • a nonuniform and fine work affected layer controlled so as to have a thickness of 0.2 ⁇ m or below by removing treatment.
  • the present invention provides an improvement in the platability of a copper alloy by reducing the thickness of a work affected layer present in the copper alloy surface layer to 0.2 ⁇ m or below, and exerts its effect on various types of copper alloys differing in alloy composition and property.
  • the present invention can also ensure prevention of anomalous precipitation in solder plating, Ni plating or else as in the cases of Ag plating and Cu plating, thereby offering an excellent platability.
  • Lead frames, terminals and connectors using the present copper alloy for electronic machinery and tools have satisfactory yields because the troubles ascribable to the platability of a copper alloy don't occur in their respective producing methods, and ensure high reliability in not only packaging and onboard-mounting processes but also at the use stage subsequent thereto.
  • FIG. 1 is a cross-sectional photograph of a copper alloy under SIM observation.
  • FIG. 2 is a schematic diagram depicting a cross-section of a copper alloy comprising a work affected layer 1 and a plastic deformation layer 2 .
  • the present invention requires that the work affected layer has a thickness reduced to the limit of no effect on crystallinity under precipitation of the metal plating. Specifically, it is preferable that the thickness be adjusted to 0.2 ⁇ m or below. For uses requiring high reliability in particular, it is more preferable to adjust the thickness of the work affected layer to 0.05 ⁇ m or below.
  • Examples of metal plating which can be given to the copper alloy of the present invention include Ag plating, Cu plating, solder plating, Sn plating and Ni plating.
